This Is Your Market On Centrally-Planned Steroids

Deteriorating economic data? Check. No volume? Check. Increasing expectations the Fed will taper? Check. So what does a "stock market" do - it tags along to the USDJPY which ramps just because it bounces off the 101 algorithmic support level, and just happens to take the S&P up 10 points with it. Then EUR takes over for the ramp. New normal "trading"...

 

 

and crude...

Mega POMO planned for tomorrow's  EOM window dressing. I am not shorting today or tomorrow.   (Plus as bonus for Mrs. Watanabe: tons of manipulated data from Japan later today.)

I know where it's going - the shitter.

The only question is whether the shit will be on the ceiling or the floor.

At least once the central planners use their superior intellects and policies to get the supermarket shelves in the US looking like the ones in  the 1960’s Soviet Union we won’t have to worry about eating too much GMO food.

This is a market you can trade, you just can't invest. I just might sit out today and tomorrow and work on my suntan.

Or, you can buy some calls in the morning and get out by noon, POMO day style.

Some easy money for gardening (drinking beer in your garden) on a sunny weekend...

I'm eyeing the SPY w5 166.50 call for 0.40.  If the market is flat the rest of the day then this may be a good buy going into tomorrow.

It literally is 'buy the ramp in EVERYTHING' this morning.  Just brilliant.  So...it must be a 'stock picker's market' then, I guess.

Thank you, Ben Bernanke, for this utterly ridiculous wasteland.

Yes. look at volume. The CBs are the only market participants of significance.  Bigger POMO tommorrow.  CBs frontrunning themselves...

The fed is going over 100 bil a month to bail out the reprecussions from Japan....then 200 bil....

There was no QE happeneing when Lehman tanked. This time around it's not a bank, it's a country, and this is how they will try to stop it.

MSN.com tells me that "Stock rise as stimulus fears ease".

They left the 's' off of stocks, not me.

BTFD. Please do not worry.

NEWSFLASH:

Bad news this morning as Ben Bernank got sucked into his superprinter BTFD-3000.

Better Than Expected news though is that he popped out the other end as the first Trillion dollar FED note in US history. As he popped out of the printer he was a bit disoriented and was heard mumbling something like "jamie, jamie, I'm richer than you".

when steroids ab-users have to stop their drug use because of health issues -internal organ blowing up etc- they quickly shrink back to their natural old 160 lbs self.
